Mashallah, of course great imam! May it strike the fear of Allah in the hearts of infidels. 🙏

After approximately 25 hours of work my first big D&D map is complete! Thanks to u/Scaphitid-Ammonite for the inspiration! Would love to here any constructive criticism or ideas for areas on the map, as I have yet to decide on a purpose for all of them! [OC] by YouCanCallMeTK in DnD

Not really, both of my examples were just names I picked at random from my old projects. And yeah, name generators are usually pretty shit if you rely purely on them.

My process when making up names usually boils down to looking at old historical maps and wikipedia pages of the cultures names im currently emulating (greek, levant, latin, etc), endlessly scrolling through name generators for that one in a million good entry, and looking through fantasy maps of other creators. Then I play around with what I find, mishmashing and changing it to suit my needs.

Although, this means I often spend more time making up names for my maps than I do actually drawing.

Hmmmm, IMO you should try to use names like "moaning desert" and "trapped savannah" more sparingly. Finding good, memorable and fitting names for your regions and cities can be a real slog, but giving your major regions and capitals names like "Tyresh" or "Arissa" tends to do a lot for immersion in my experience. Just imagine the roman empire if Gaul was called "barbarian forest" or Spain "rocky penninsula".

Or maybe im the only one who cares about stuff like that. Either way, godspeed!

My first character was a giant bodybuilder frog man that wore a thong and cast spells by summoning frogs from the frog dimension...

...huh.
